What we do at Thunderdrones:

We charge a $75 diagnostic fee up front when you fill out the online repair request. You then choose the max amount you will spend on the repair not including shipping. Just send your drone in to us, you pay for shipping. We will repair it if the repair cost is less than the amount you want to spend. Then when the repair is done, we will send you a Paypal invoice. If the repair cost is above your budget, all you will owe is $75 plus return shipping. If you decide to repair it, the $75 estimate fee is applied to the repair.

How long will it take to get an estimate?

It will take 7-10 business days after we have received your drone to generate the estimate. We will email you when the estimate is complete. The estimate is just that, we will address what the error messages are and what physical damage is apparent. If we find any additional things that need to be repaired after the estimate and test flight, we will let you know before we finish the repair and wont proceed until we get your approval.

Turnaround time for the repair varies by drone, but usually 7-10 business days after you have accepted the estimate.
